A sturdy slab serif with square, bracketed serifs and a consistent, workmanlike rhythm. Strokes are largely even with minimal contrast, producing a solid color on the page; terminals tend to be blunt and horizontal, with clear slab feet on verticals. Counters are open and round, with moderate proportions and a steady baseline presence, while details like the ear on the lowercase g and the small, slightly scooped joins suggest a pragmatic text face rather than a display-only design. Numerals are straightforward and readable, matching the serifed construction and overall sturdiness of the letters.
Well-suited to editorial layouts, book and report typography, and educational materials where a firm, legible slab serif is desired. It can also serve for headlines and subheads that need a traditional, sturdy presence while staying compatible with long-form text settings.
The tone is grounded and dependable, with a classic, institutional feel. It reads as familiar and authoritative without being overly ornate, evoking textbook, newsroom, or utility typography that prioritizes clarity and steadiness.
The design intent appears to be a practical, plainspoken slab serif for everyday publishing: durable shapes, strong serifs, and consistent construction that produce reliable readability across body copy and supporting hierarchy.
In text, the bold slab serifs and blunt terminals create a confident texture that holds up at larger paragraph sizes and in headings. The design favors clarity over finesse, with straightforward letterforms and consistent spacing that support continuous reading.
